"Yeah... thanksss, Eva, phew..." Aka wiped another trickles of sweat, keeping a confident face at the Nuit girl, while in truth, she could feel the push of her own mind against her, telling her to cast even more magic, more spells, more res; Aka had to groan as she fought the strange sensation, similar to pushing back addiction with the drug right within her grasp, Come on, cast more! One more should be enough... just one more! The Viper gritted her teeth, but still forcing her lips into a grin. Evalin better showed her something interesting quickly, her desire was growing by the ticks.
The Viper's slitted eyes watched in intrigue as Evalin mounted the Myrian, her knees on the woman's shoulders, the Myrian panicked and tried to throw Evalin off while screaming in her native language, due to the restraints however, she couldn't budge an inch. The undead's reactions were off-putting, treating the girl as if she was her mother. "Eva..." Aka forgot about her sweet whispers, her slits never leaving the Nuit as she caressed the Myrian, a twisted mockery of affection. Eva summoned her res, and from the girl's reactions, it seemed she was manipulating air to suffocate her. The poor Myrian squirmed in pain, unable to breathe, unable to scream, dying an agonizing demise. Evalin mercilessly continued the torture, while Evalin affectionately caressed the girl like a mother tucking her daughter to sleep. The cheek caress came with the girl's death.
Aka found it hard to believe, but she found herself rather repulsed by Evalin's cruel disregard of life, sure the Myrian was an enemy, but she was just a girl... likely not knowing her doomed fate when she walked out for patrol that night, what about her family, her mother waiting for her back in their city? Aka strangely sympathized with her. Surely, at least Evalin could give her a quick death instead of... this. Aka kept her silence as she watched Eva disrobed herself and the girl, procuring a bottle of ink, likely for the preparation of the ritual. She observed with keen eyes while the Nuit applied runes to the recently-dead girl, then she took her staff to draw a rather wide circle.
Aka just nodded, keeping her lips closed as she contemplated about the Nuit's behavior. She realized that first and foremost, Evalin was an undead, her thought process was different compared to the living, the girl hardly cared about her own body, let alone the body of an enemy. "Eva..." The revulsion she felt for the Nuit was gradually replaced by pity, she pitied the girl's state of being, understanding why the Nuit desperately wanted to sever the hands of fate, Eva hated herself as well. She didn't turn away as Eva suggested, keeping her gaze locked to the undead, "No, I'll watch..." The Viper tried to sound haughty, but her voice was trembling.
"..." A flash of memory, what Eva did was very similar to Galbern, the Dhani girl found her Nuit mentor on top of a corpse, his back lurching as thick white substance pouring out from his mouth, it was all too similar... save for the gender flips and Aka not being a foolish panicking girl. The Viper kept her sad expression as the stream poured into the corpse's mouth, some of it spilling to the ground. Finally, it was done, Eva or rather, Eva's former body, swayed then falling lifelessly to the ground, Aka quickly curbed her panic, part of her mind still convinced the old body was still Evalin. Evalin needed her rest, for now... Aka stood up, heading to the Nuit's former body.
Upon waking up, the new Evalin would find her mistress standing before her old body, watching in silence then with a flick of her right hand, she ignited Eva's old body in flames, the smoke rising out to the air hole at the top, aside from Leth's light, only the flames lit their little sanctuary, it was a rather symbolic act, to burn away Evalin's old vessel, renewed in another, "Evalin..." Aka turned her back, leaving the old body to peacefully return to which it came from, ashes. The Nuit was taller than Aka now, but she was sitting down while the Viper was standing up, soon Aka would kneel beside the new Evalin, raising her right hand to caress Eva's cheek, "I sssee, I'm glad..." Aka promptly hugged the girl, a drop of tear falling from her right eye to Eva's bronze shoulder, "I'm glad you are alright, I wasss so worried, I thought you were going to leave me... it'sss okay now, you are here," She slowly released the hug, gazing at Eva's red eyes with her own scarlets, "If you are ready, we can go home now, or we can stay here first if you'd like".
